I’m Jenna, cofounder of Journey to Growth, Registered Therapeutic Counsellor Candidate and Certified Life Coach. I'm located in Sooke, bc, near Victoria on Vancouver Island, BC. I offer online sessions via zoom, and in person sessions located at West Coast Esthetics and Healing Studio.
Understanding the courage it takes to seek healing, My goal is to support and guide you from survival mode to thriving. My approach ensures you feel heard, validated, and supported as you work through what's most alive for you, and help you set goals to move forward confidently and authentically. Our sessions will be a compassionate sanctuary for self-discovery and growth, exploring your emotions, thought patterns, and coping mechanisms to help you move forward with confidence and self-assurance.
As a heart led and compassionate trauma therapist, I utilize skills primarily from person-centered therapy. I also bring in other modalities such as but not limited to somatic therapy , CBT, Narrative Therapy, Attachment Theory and Solution-focused Therapy where appropriate. I recognize each client as a unique individual and tailor my skills to meet you where you are.
What brought Samantha and I together in creating Journey to Growth was our shared commitment to supporting individuals who have experienced emotionally abusive relationships. While this is a significant focus of our practice, I also assist clients with a variety of issues, including stress, burnout, anxiety, life transitions, and grief.
The passion I have for supporting those who have experienced emotionally abusive relationships stems from my own journey. I understand the profound impact this can have, leading to a loss of self-confidence, self-esteem, self-love, and trust. Seeking growth, healing, and self-actualization with a trauma counsellor saved me from merely surviving, and I believe it can do the same for you. You don’t have to navigate this path alone, I'm here to support you in recognizing the signs of abusive patterns in relationships, understanding how to respond, and finding a way out if you haven’t already.
Together, we'll navigate your path to emotional recovery and personal empowerment. I look forward to supporting your journey toward resilience, confidence, and joy. Let's take that first step forward on your
Journey to Growth.
